Our Story 

The Deputies Baton & Drum Corps was formed over 40 years ago by Linda Jones and was originally known as Dillon's Deputies. 

The Deputies have traveled and competed in many parades in the state of Ohio and beyond. We are proud to hold state titles from the King's Island competition and many titles from Twirl Mania International Championships competition at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. We have participated in the Orange Bowl Parade; Miss America Parade in Atlantic City; the Independence Day Parades in Washington D.C. and Philadelphia; The Canton Hall of Fame Parade; Disney World Christmas Parade; Cedar point parades; Cavs games; and many more. We enjoy traveling with the corps and offering new and exciting experiences for our members and their families. 

We are proud of our Deputy Alumni accomplishments! Multiple members have become collegiate feature twirlers, an Assistant Drum Major at The Ohio State University, members of university drum lines, and a member of a rock band!
